Catherine Share and Sandy Good shout at the judge:"You are a mockery of justice, You are a joke"! LOLOL

This must have been friggin' priceless! : )

Can you imagine how awesome video footage of this entire trial would be?!!I think I'd watch it 12 times at least.You could just run it 2 hours after work, every night, for a year. AHahahaI'd have to stock-up on beer and popcorn.

Sandy Good: “You wouldn’t let him speak no more, so we can speak”!

Mark Ross: “I certainly am in contempt of this court”! LOL

They really freaked, after Manson lost, as Star says... his "pro-per".

Manson losing his ability to defend himself, was quite a milestone, in this trial.

Hmm, Mark Ross, well, wasn't it his house (28 Club House, Venice) where Zero was shot? I always heard Venice was a biker paradise...never heard if he was a biker or not, just that he set up the Hendrickson film...

Lynyrd this comment was on the previous thread. I just wanted you to see it.

It's from Lynn:

>>>I just want to make one comment- I realize this comment section is closed. I typically read all the blogs but do not post. I have decided to post here as it seems like a nice group of folks and Lynrd, you are a class act. Thank you>>>

Thank you for your warm welcome. I don't know how much I will have to add. I followed the case many years ago and have sort of lost touch with it, so I am again a student. I will contribute when I can.

I was interested in the Scientology thread and found it quite interesting. I am very familiar with this "religion"

Lynn, we're all students of this subject, and no one is an expert.Don't feel intimidated, and feel free to join-in anytime... even if you just want to ask a question.Questions are usually the best conversation starters, and most folks are eager to help others.

If you want to discuss something off-topic, current news, or even tell a good joke... that's cool with me.I actually prefer an informal format.

I was reading the other night, that Mark Ross had done some acting... was an acting student... or something to that effect, and he and Hendrickson met, or at least knew each other, through those channels.So, you're on the right track there. They did meet along those lines.

Unfortunately, the excerpt I read was very vague, regarding dates, or a timeline.

The article was about Hendrickson specifically, and there was only one brief sentence dedicated to Mark Ross.

Is it possible Ross knew the "Family" before he met Hendrickson?I have no idea.

Manson was (at least initially) granted the right to defend himself.One has to wonder why this decision would be over-turned... for no apparent reason.It does strongly suggest, there must have been a reason(s).

I suppose one would need to have access to all the court transcripts (and read them), regarding actions prior this "pro-per" ruling... to see what specifically, did or did not take place for certain.That would be the only definitive solution, to this argument.

What does seem clear, is that Manson (and the Family) began to act-out, with much more fervor, after he lost his ability to defend himself.

"Charlie Manson is a five foot seven schizophrenic, who if it weren't for the murder of Sharon Tate, would never be known or discussed. And I'm not saying he isn't funny and entertaining. I'm saying he's a dime a dozen criminal-class punk, who had the good fortune of running into some middle class pseudo-revolutionary white girls." -- Tom G

"The simple and undeniable truth, is that Charlie and the gang were/are the biggest idiots, morons and imbeciles on the planet." -- Leary7
